%X anacanthorus penilabiatus n. sp. is described from the serrasalmid fish, piaractus mesopotamicus (holmberg, 1887), cultivated in the centro de aq¨¹icultura, universidade estadual paulista. the new species is characterized by having a relatively straight copulatory organ with a long "lip" on the distal margin and a median longitudinal flap, and a copulatory ligament. the large size of the infrapopulations of this species of parasite indicates that it should be considered a potential agent causing losses in aquaculture of the fish host.
